Even though it is only Tuesday, cabins are already preparing for our first camper Shabbat of 2009. Each cabin was given their own prayer to lead as part of their unit Kabbalat service. Then the whole unit came together to learn new songs that will be a part of our Shabbat service on Saturday morning. Carmel particularly enjoyed learning Hashalom Alechem, a song new to Camp Tawonga. Each line of the song is a message of peace in first Hebrew, then Arabic and lastly Sanskrit. Only four more days until Shabbat… the countdown begins!
